For Good

ELPHABAI'm limited:Just look at me - I'm limitedAnd just look at you -You can do all I couldn't do, GlindaSo now it's up to you(spoken) For both of us(sung) Now it's up to you:

GLINDAI've heard it saidThat people come into our lives for a reasonBringing something we must learnAnd we are ledTo those who help us most to growIf we let themAnd we help them in returnWell, I don't know if I believe that's trueBut I know I'm who I am todayBecause I knew you:

Like a comet pulled from orbitAs it passes a sunLike a stream that meets a boulderHalfway through the woodWho can say if I've been changed for the better?But because I knew youI have been changed for good

ELPHABAIt well may beThat we will never meet againIn this lifetimeSo let me say before we partSo much of meIs made of what I learned from youYou'll be with meLike a handprint on my heartAnd now whatever way our stories endI know you have re-written mineBy being my friend:Like a ship blown from its mooringBy a wind off the seaLike a seed dropped by a skybirdIn a distant woodWho can say if I've been changed for the better?But because I knew you:

GLINDABecause I knew you:

BOTHI have been changed for good

ELPHABAAnd just to clear the airI ask forgivenessFor the things I've done you blame me for

GLINDABut then, I guess we knowThere's blame to share

BOTHAnd none of it seems to matter anymore

GLINDA ELPHABALike a comet pulled Like a ship blownFrom orbit as it Off it's mooringPasses a sun, like By a wind off theA stream that meets Sea, like a seedA boulder, half-way Dropped by aThrough the wood Bird in the wood

BOTHWho can say if I've been changed for the better?I do believe I have been changed for the better?
